    摘要: An air circuit breaker includes two separable electrical contacts connected to electric current input and output terminals; and a chamber for quenching an electric arc, including a stack of splitter plates that are spaced apart from one another, and lateral walls placed on either side of the stack and including a thermosetting-resin impregnated polyamide woven and being devoid of glass fibres. The quenching chamber furthermore includes protective elements made of crosslinked polyamide, the elements being placed in junction zones between the lateral walls and holding plates, the protective elements covering corners of the splitter plates, which corners are adjacent to the lateral walls, so as to separate these corners of the splitter plates from the electrical contacts.

    摘要: Fault currents in the phases of a three-phase supply are detected by transformers 28 in respective phase links 14 and are counted by associated circuits 24 when any one of the circuits 24 reaches a predetermined count level, or when there is a fault condition, a low VA trip coil 42 is energized so as to release latches which hold the phase links 14 in their operative positions and thereby cause all three links 14 to drop out together.

    摘要: A female interrupting contact for a current-interrupting unit includes a smoothly contoured, apertured pressure ring which is held in a groove formed in the wall of a bore through a contact body. A flat spring in the groove maintains the ring to one side of the bore so that the aperture is normally misaligned with the path of a male contact through the bore. When the male contact enters the aperture, it moves the ring against the action of the flat spring to align the aperture with its path. This alignment effects intimate sliding engagement between the male contact and both the ring and the wall of the bore, one or both of the latter of which are conductive so that a reliable, metal-to-metal, first electrical path through the contacts and the interrupting unit is established. The bore is elongated between the pressure ring and an end thereof from which the male contact exits, following which an arc is established between the contacts. This elongation is at least as long as the length of the male contact, so that after the intimate engagement ceases, a second electrical path is established via small arcs or arclets which form between the male contact and the wall of the bore. The length of time the second path exists may be selected so that when the unit interrupts the arc a switch or the like, with which the unit is used, is sufficiently far open to prevent an arc from forming therein.

    摘要: A solid state material insulated breaker of a small size comprising a molded main cylinder of electrically insulating material. The main cylinder is sealed at the upper and lower ends thereof and encloses a breaker unit having a fixed and a movable contacts therein. An insulating material is enclosed in said insulating cylinder. Two electrical conductors covered with a solid state insulating material are inserted respectively through two longitudinally spaced holes in the wall of said insulating cylinder, and connected electrically to said fixed and movable contacts.
